Default question about CF spoiler..

I've had my seibon spoiler for about 2 1/2 months now, but because of the winter, decided not to install it. I just received the OEM spoiler templates today, and I don't know if it's just me, but it doesn't look as though the holes line up, there is also an extra hole on either extreme corner of the CF spoiler. Can anybody shed some light on this for me?

Thanks in advance[/url]

Yes the oem template does work, I used it for mine. Just make sure you are aligning the template correctly, do not half ___ on it, you dont want to drill more than 4 holes I actually used this guys diy to help out. good luck!

I used the oem template to install my seibon CF spoiler. All went well. Be sure use a center punch and center the holes exactly. I used smaller holes than TRD suggested more appropriate for the hardware that came with the Seibon spoiler and the fit was very tight, but that is what I wanted.

Thanks guys, I think I'm going to bite the bullet and install it today...the biggest thing that is worrying me is drilling into my carbon fiber hatch...I'm really hoping it doesn't crack, but brand new drill bits and some caution should help with that.
